[OH thread] BGSU - IIDX EMPRESS and Pop'n Music 14: FEVER!

[Trick]

UPDATE BY: FrozenHalo

We have added (and fixed) the following to the gameroom as of 10/25/09:

Beatmania IIDX Empress:
75cents per play


ParaParaParadise 2nd Mix:
50cents per play


Guitarfreaks 11th:
50cents per play


In The Groove 2 (+Customs):
50cents per play


SoulCalibur 2:
25cents per play


A Pop'n cab is in the works for a replacement and I'll update you on that.
We also have another cab being fixed up and as far was what will be on it I am not sure. I will also hopefully
have news on that soon.

The Student Union is open from:
Monday - Saturday: 8am - Midnight
Sunday: 10am - Midnight

Parking:
You can park at any of the lots where you see a red dot or a green dot AFTER 5PM. There is
a visitors lot at the union itself, but it is a pay to park lot and they charge by the hour. However,
if you park at the pay lot and wait until 11pm, the lot gates open and you can leave without paying.

If you come without quarters you can obtain some from the Information Desk,
shown here in this shoddy MSPaint map:


If you show up and have any problems let me know:
419:460:4428 (Ask for Alex.)

[[+Duracell-]]

You can park in any lot that have a red or green dot on the lot sign after 5pm on weekdays and anytime on the weekends for free. These are the Commuter (Red) and Faculty/Staff (Green) lots.

Gameroom hours are when the Student Union is open:
M-F 7am-12am
Sa 8am-12am
Su 10am-12am

DM V3 is all mine!

Minor update: Mark and I shifted around some games in the Neo-Geo cabs (per your suggestion, Trick) so Bust-A-Move and Strikers 1945 Plus are now in the one that has sound. We also plan on bringing in Keyboard Mania 2nd Mix sometime this month.

Also: Where are you guys getting a DistorteD from?

Also also: If you guys need extra help moving stuff in, I'd have no problem driving up, as long as it's not a work day or it's Saturday after my shift. boct1584@gmail.com is the best way to reach me; I check every day.

[[+Duracell-]]

For the love of God and all things holy, don't let him move KeyboardMania 2nd into the game room. It's already jam-packed as it is, and we don't need the hunk of junk there. No one will play it anyway.

And while Mark is at it, he should take a lot of the other games out...swap them around with his other machines. No one really plays the KI or Area 51.

[Trick]

A large handful of the games in the gameroom are rarely played beyond the ITG2, at least by the regulars. The capcom VS SNK was a great addition at least. As much as I like the idea of having something like Keyboardmania in there, unless he takes something out in its place, it is going to get way too packed in there. Mark is great for giving us the glass wall to put our bemani games, but if he keeps adding machines without swapping other less played games out, it's going to get really cramped fast. The gameroom could easily do without the Area 51 or the sound-less NeoGeo cab. Now that the good games have been swapped to the other cab, the other one isn't doing much more than take up space. Even the Guitar Freaks isn't doing well, despite being "a guitar hero ripoff", so say the random passerby. Were it a newer mix, it'd easily be justified, but with less than a handful of songs to play, there's really no point. People come in, play one round and never come back.

Assuming we get the candy cabs working alright, we'll have either Radiant Silvergun or Rival Schools: Project Justice in there along with DrumMania tonight. I don't think we're going to have the space to put in BOTH candy cabinets, unfortunately.

[Solon Halwinder]

I agree the GF isn't really worth it, and I've been telling him we should just swap it for KBM if it's not doing well, which I would agree it isn't.

Anyway, I'm not sure when we'll get around to it now; I'm going to my grandparents' in Cleveland for Easter Sunday, he and I are hauling some machines to an old school/apartment building in Ohio City on Monday (probably), I work Tuesday through Saturday, and the week after next, I'm gonna be in Columbus for a property/casualty insurance course.

And as for what's not doing well...if you guys could keep an eye out and see what is and isn't getting played for around a week, then let me know, I'll pass it on to Mark.

1. V3? I hate you. Yes, I really do.
2. I'll do everything in my power to get myself there to play it sometime.

[[+Duracell-]]

I can tell you right now: Whenever I am in there, KI, Area 51, and the bowling game aren't played at all. And I'm usually the one playing Capcom Vs SNK...I can't vouch for anyone else.

[Arbel]

I know of one guy who plays KI and one guy who plays Area 51. A couple people actually play the bowling game. The right Neo Geo is like never played though. I would suggest taking out KI, the right Neo Geo, and Area 51. I mean seriously he can't be making more than like a dollar per week on these games (especially after split the profit with the university)

I'd suggest taking out these 3, perhaps putting in his tekken 5 and if he REALLY wants keyboardmania, like others said, swap it for Guitar Freaks. Thats my 2 cents.

[Arbel]

Coin mech should be working fine now, had to do some modification

Random post.

BGSU has now become even more epic.
Much of my money is in Arbel's hands.

[Nomi]

So you guys put Radiant Silvergun in there? My friend was sort of tweaking out about that in a good way. He's probably going to blow a fair bit playing around with that one.

[C:\]

I play the bowling game. It beats Wii bowling

[Trick]

Well everything is set up the way it will be for the rest of the summer. The current setup is:

Pop'n Music 14: FEVER - $0.75 for 3 stages + extra
Rival Schools: Project JUSTICE - $0.25
DrumMania V3 - $0.75 for 3 stages + extra/encore, long songs count as 2
Radiant Silvergun - $0.25

We will probably have 50 cent Saturdays for the last few weeks of the semester, but it will unfortunately have to be a steady 75 cents for the music games through the summer since none of us will be there to change it on the weekends.

If anyone notices any big problems with any of the machines, just throw a post in here and we'll check it out as soon as we can.

Problem with V3: Not enough Bittersweet
